I can see how you'd be confused about his river bet of $.50 into a $55 dollar pot. That shit don't make no sense. I don't care what two cards you have in your hand, you only have to have it be correct to call once out of every bajillion times for it to be correct. It might even be a correct call to make if you don't even hold two cards in the hand and are down the street playing rollerhockey. Slowplaying top two pair like that is asking to get sucked out on. So congrats on the win, serves him right.

As for the question of folding on the turn, I think Jeff is right. Although it seems like you may have forced yourself into that difficult decision w/ your turn raise of $10. If you'd only raised it $5 on the turn and he reraised for $10-15 would you have felt as compelled to call? A reraise on the turn like that and I start to think I'm beaten by two pair or trips here. That being said, there wasn't a real sense of immediacy from the guy trying to end that pot with a huge reraise or push. The board didn't have any flush or straight draws, either, so the suited part of your big slick didn't offer you any other outs. I know I could personally do a better job of not getting myself into a mess like that, so your posting helped me consider this scenario in other ways. Thanks.
